It was a rough start for this stay. We tried to park in their lot and there were signs everywhere saying no parking due to tailgate event. So we called the hotel and asked the employee where we should park instead and she was unsure. So we finally found a random lot and came to check in and that employee gave us a paper that had information of the parking garage we were supposed to park in...which would have been helpful to know when we called. Also while we were waiting to check in, their system wasn't working apparently because one guest was upset their key didn't work and another was upset because the room they were assigned had guests in it already. Thankfully we didn't have any issues once we were in the room which was fine and comfortable enough for the night stay.
